Plantar fascia tear. Listed day to day but typically that a ~2 month injury. I think he's probably done for the season.

Maybe he gets back in time for final playoff rounds if the Nuggets get there... (which I thought they were very capable of -- but without Lawson.... I highly doubt it)

A shame. Yesterday Granger, today Lawson. The playoff race is getting less competitive.

Quote:

Ty Lawson has a plantar fascia tear in his heel and will not play on Friday against the Nets.
No surgery will be required. The Nuggets are listing Lawson as day-to-day, but we can't imagine Lawson will bounce back quickly from what sounds like a very painful injury.

Who knows with these players. Marc Gasol had an abdominal tear and came bam after three games, when he was "out indefinitely". Real sham for re nuggets they were stuck behind the heat's streak, but had a very impressive run of their own.
